Labour plans to digitise the NHS red book used by parents for their children's medical records, allowing them and the NHS to easily track vaccinations and check-ups. The party aims to modernise the NHS app and ensure automatic notifications for appointments.
Labour will digitise the NHS red book parents use for their children’s medical records as part of a series of reforms to the NHS app.
Wes Streeting MP, Labour’s shadow health secretary, said: “A child born today will live to see the 22nd century and things we can’t begin to imagine. Labour wants them to be part of the healthiest generation that ever lived. That’s why we will digitise the red book, so children’s health records are on the NHS App.
“The problems with the NHS are clear. It’s a 20th century service that hasn’t changed with the times and isn’t fit for the modern era.”
